    I mean, we can both eat less meat and also demand change from the rich, they aren’t mutually exclusive. “Because they do it too” isn’t a great excuse

        Hey not all of us! I plan to get a job working in whatever underground cyberpunk hell scape is our future. It’s you surface people who are screwed.

        Going vegan isn’t “making sacrifices”, it’s the right thing to do. Rich people aren’t the ones consuming all of the meat, it’s everyday schlubs like you.

          Here’s the problem that schlubs like you don’t understand: The rich people who profited from causing most of the problem aren’t making any sacrifices and expect everyone else to do it for them.

            Sounds like a poor excuse to avoid personal responsibility to me. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

              Be a good little communist and clean up after the rich capitalist’s mistakes.

              No but making yourself miserable for no reason won’t either. Look, I am personally trying. Got meat down to about one meal a week (oh Lord that one meat meal a week is so awesome), only driving when there isnt another option, and not blasting my AC. This doesn’t change the fact that there are big big problems that individuals making themselves feel like shit won’t solve. All my effort can be undone in a single day by anyone on earth and they don’t even have to plan it out, it could just happen.

        Lololololol, painting the sales of a product (eg gasoline) as personal usage and then aggregating it as a metric is just about one of the most disingenuous use of statistics I regularly see spouted.

        So tired of any personal responsibilities. Fuck those oil producers heating my home polluting the planet!
